Description

April 11th, 1941… the failure of the Italians to suppress the Greeks forced Hitler to set loose his dogs, the Leibstandarte Adolf Hitler. Pouring through the Greek mountainside like floodwaters, the SS drove the mixed group of Greeks and BEF across the frontier. In a desperate act, General Wilson ordered a detachment to sacrifice themselves in a rear guard fight. Setting up defensive positions in the neck of 3,000 foot peeks bordered by rocky cliffs, the Allies waited for the brazen SS…and then wrote their families one last time…

July 30th, 1943… disregarding the last bell of the last round, the two bitter rivals squared off and traded blows in a blind rage. Weeks after the great battle of Kursk had been called off the SS "Totenkopf" continued to punch at the 4th Guards Mechanized Rifle Division with their last remaining Tigers. Driving past the smoldering hulks of the 23rd Panzer Division the Tigers and a platoon of Engineers approached the knoll of Hill 213.9. With sweat pouring off their brows, the dug-in Russian gunners lay silently and patiently among the vast wheat fields with breaches loaded and barrels trained on the steel monsters. They waited until the very last moment…

February 15th, 1945…
since Normandy the American tankers had been getting a bloody nose by the heavy German panzers. But now a new tank had driven off of the great assembly lines in the States: General "Black Jack" Pershing was back in service with the U.S. Army. With thoughts of burning Shermans in their heads, a lawless group of American tankers hijacked a Gyrostabilizer from the supply depots and installed it in their new tank. Armed to the teeth with APCR the bitter Americans set upon a group of Panthers known to be lurking in a nearby village….
vengeance would come swiftly!

…or would it?

Yes, the long awaited sequel to "No Quarter, No Glory!" has arrived!

This pack is a special set of 8 HEARTY scenarios. Like NQNG! six of these scenarios are ideal for tournament play…and the other two are just plain beefy! The scenarios in this pack were carefully selected to include a variety of actions from the early days of the SS, through anti-Partisan activity, to Kursk level actions.

THE FUHRER'S FIREMEN is the much anticipated sequel to "No Quarter, No Glory!". Your Black SS counter collection will be rounded off with a full set of early war 468, 447, and 436 black SS counters as well as a complete set of their respective HS.
